An elementary school girl told police a man tried to lure her into his car as she was walking home from Parkside School March 4.

The alleged incident took place at 4:30 p.m. on North Seymour Street just south of Scott Street, according to a Fond du Lac Police Department report.

The girl told her mother a man driving an “older, long brown car” south on Seymour pulled over to the west shoulder of the road and told the girl from across the street “to get in the car,” according to the report. The man never got out of the vehicle and did not have physical contact with the girl.

The girl ignored the man and he continued driving south on Seymour, according to the report. The driver is described as a white male, possibly in his 40s with some facial hair.

The Fond du Lac School District was made aware of the situation and police will be stepping up patrols around Fond du Lac schools.

Anyone who may have witnessed or has information regarding this incident is asked to call School Resource Officer Cammie Vandermolen at 906-6744 or Crime Alert at 322-3740.
